The slow cooker recipe book said it was a useful ingredient.  I got some, but I have no idea what it is.  Help!

well, it is liquid, when used in very sparing amounts, gives food a smokey flavor. I have used it in a lot of recipes, like jambalayas, seitan bbq ribs, etc.

And if I can weigh in as a carnivore, it gives most meats a nice smoky flavor whether you actually grill them over smoke or not.  Highly recommended.

1 to what everybody else said, and, lean on the "less is more" side. 
People put a lot less effort into picking apart evidence that confirms what they already believe.

The money is in the division. Always has been, always will be. Divide and rule, the politician cries; unite and lead, is the watchword of the wise.

I assumed it was a concoction of chemicals and/or MSG.  I was wrong.

It doesn't sound good to me, but I don't like the taste of smoked foods.

I know I know. We had a BBQ place cater lunch at work for nurse's week. We had hbjrgers and hot dogs. I took one bite of the hamburger and couldn't eat anymore, it tasted like smoke with a little beef.

be very careful that you do not break your liquid smoke bottle... I repeat, do not break the liquid smoke bottle. I had one in my pantry. it somehow got knocked off the shelf and broke. OMG. Cleaning that up was disgusting and that smelled lasted forever. I had to throw out anything the liquid touched because it smelled so bad.  ICK.

I think it's a plastic bottle...  Might be a good reason for that. Thanks for the warning.

When I am not watching my calories in the winter I make a creamy cheddar potato soup with beef sausage and I add a touch of liquid smoke, and sometimes to my chili, I also have smoked sea salt that I use on occaison too.

Me too.  It's the secret ingredient in half the things I make that people really seem to like.
